University of Brighton Graduate Fashion Show 2012

On the 14^th June I presented my graduate collection, along with 21 other students graduating from the Fashion Design and Textiles with Business Studies courses at the University of Brighton, at an independent catwalk and exhibition at the Candid Arts Gallery, Angel. The evening played host to members of the fashion industry as well as friends and family. Due to cuts in funding to universities, the show was funded and organised by the students, meaning a low key but highly personal show. The venue was perfectly suited to the event, with the catwalk arranged downstairs around the buildings supporting pillars and guests sat on school style benches. The upstairs of the venue was used as a gallery space and drinks reception, where the students displayed photoshoots, portfolios and several of the class showed films.
